Experience the Pre-Prep

Here at the Pre-Prep, we help make the transition from home to school as gentle as possible. We firmly believe that close relationships between parents, staff and children are vital. With over 120 children aged 2-7 years, Monkton Pre-Prep is a very exciting place to be. We aim to provide a stimulating child-centered curriculum in a safe and vibrant learning environment. We hope that you will want to come and visit our busy, happy school.

Experience the Prep School

Maintaining the delicate balance between academic success and personal development is one of the School's great strengths. From the tiny two-year olds in the Pre-Prep to the teenagers in the Prep School, the happiness of every child is of paramount importance. Please come and visit us. I would be delighted to show you around as well as introducing you to the staff and boys and girls.

Experience the Senior School

Monkton is a school which is both modern and forward looking, yet remains close to the values and principles on which it was founded in 1868. We believe this combination is a powerful one for educating young people - an education which seeks not only to steer them to university with good A level grades, but also to develop qualities of character, confidence and sensitivity which will prepare them for the whole of their lives. If this is what you are looking for, please get in touch to arrange a visit.

150th Anniversary

Welcome to the Monkton Foundation Sesquicentennial webpages.

Monkton celebrates 150 years of excellence in Independent Education since its foundation as a school by Rev Francis Pocock in 1868. The sesquicentennial year runs from January 2018 – December 2018 and aims to provide a rich and diverse year of information and events to celebrate this important milestone in the school’s history. As well as Monkton celebrating 150 years Clarendon which merged with Monkton in 1998 also celebrates 120 years since its foundation in 1898.

Within this webpage you will be able to see the calendar of events that are happening during the year. Many of the events that already take place in a busy exciting school will continue under the 150th banner but will just be bigger and better. This calendar will be regularly updated and details of how you can attend and support these will also be easily accessible.

One section of this webpage has been created to showcase the stories, moments, images and notable people that students, staff and alumni submit for inclusion in the timeline. This will help to build a fuller picture of the School’s history and celebrate everything that makes it so special. Your submission will be greatly received.

Sharing your experiences will play an important part in helping the School to reflect on its past, while it looks forward to its exciting future.

Being true to our foundation and ethos during this celebration year we will also be supporting a nominated charity to help those for whom life is difficult.

Please take a tour around these pages and I look forward to meeting you at any of the exciting forthcoming events.
